Ole Gunnar Solskjaer aims dig at Manchester United legend

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has aimed a dig at club legend Peter Schmeichel for ending up at Manchester City towards the end of his career.

The former goalkeeper left Man Utd in 1999 after eight seasons of great service to the Red Devils, and initially joined Sporting Lisbon before end up back in the Premier League with Aston Villa in 2001/02.

The following season, Schmeichel controversially joined United’s rivals Man City, and it’s clear current manager Solskjaer doesn’t think too highly of his old team-mate’s decision.

Speaking about it now on Soccer AM, as quoted by the Metro, the Norwegian tactician mentioned the Dane’s spell in the blue half of Manchester and made it clear he felt it should not have happened.

Asked of his memories of playing Manchester City, Solskjaer said: “Honestly I cannot remember. When I came Man City weren’t in the Premier League. It must have been 2000 or 2001. I don’t have many good memories of the derbies.

“I remember losing the last one at Maine Road. I scored but we lost. I didn’t score in a win.
